How to get Ancient Suspension Field
Research in Stellaris is drawn: each area offers 3 cards at a time, weighted by each technology's draw weight (here 35) and its weight modifiers. Tier 3 opens after 6 tier 2 technologies of the same area. As a rare technology it is drawn less often, and some rare ones only appear after an event, a relic or a special project.

Other names for some empires
technology_swap: the same research shows another name (and sometimes other effects) when its condition holds.
- Ancient Suspension Field
- Uses bio-ships
In the game
Projected farther than regular shields, the suspension field technology uses ancient artifacts to slow time at the point of impact to afford the shields a longer opportunity to dispel the incoming attack's energy.
